Thanks Guys!
Got another question. Contemplating the wheelhouse build. Has anyone used this product or have any pros/cons. The structure will be framed with wood. Thinking about skinning with this and 1700/EEEpppoooxxy.
I've been researching materials like this and they go from ok to the moon.
This material seems reasonable.
For instance a 20mm 4' x 97" is 0.787402 @ $65.00 + freight. [h=1]NIDAPLAST H8PP Honeycomb Core [/h]

your mileage may vary, but i don't care for the product, it warps bends and is subject to curling when the resin cures , just my findings using it instead of wood ... with epoxy it might be different, as i don't know what shrink rates are of epoxy. best method i have found, we talked about earlier on ya post , luan with foam core for roof id use real wood or even aluminum for frame.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I had some offline conversations w/Wood and came to the conclusion that I am using good ole fashioned wood.
